South Precinct officers recognized Jones in photos from the
robbery at Wells Fargo bank at Sixth Avenue South and 24th Street, and they
arrested him.

A man walked into the bank around 4:56 p.m. Friday, opened
his jacket to show the teller a gun and demanded money. He walked out with a
couple hundred dollars in cash, Edwards said.

After the robbery was reported, officers were given a
description of the suspect, and someone matching that description was spotted
at a store nearby on 24th Street South. When officers approached him, he said
it wasn't him and that he would go to the bank to be identified.

Witnesses initially said the man apprehended was the robber
but later determined he was not a suspect.

Jones also was involved in two other bank robberies - a
Regions Bank in Hoover and a Compass Bank in Homewood.
